Old Fashioned Italian Chicken Soup (Yep It's Grandma's)

﻿

A whole meal in itself, I just love a plain chicken soup to take the chill out! My grandma and mom knew how to make a banquet out of a few ingredients and to us this shouts comfort and you can add as much as you want to this recipe to make it a whole meal.

8 to 10 chicken legs or thighs, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

1 cup sliced carrots

4 cloves of minced garlic

1/4 cup celery chopped with leaves

1 large can of whole tomatoes chopped 1 small onion minced fine (for those of you that know me this is not in my soup, but the original recipe grandma makes has it, I am allergic to onions)

This does steal my heart - love chicken soup in all its glory. Perfectly spiced, delicately herbed - and that ladle says it all - pure goodness. Very similar to my mother's and mine - so of course I approve and would love some for breakfast.

Sounds delishious. I remember going to the market with my grandmother and buying chicken feet. She would make the most wonderful soup with all these chicken feet floating in it :) You cant find chicken feet anymore.
